“Teacher succession” has always been a traditional way of inheritance of Chinese medicine. Through the succession of teachers, the valuable experience accumulated by previous generations of doctors in long-term clinical practice can be passed on from generation to generation. The advantage of this inheritance model is that it can carry out practice to the greatest extent, learn theory in practice, and better combine theory with practice, which is more in line with the characteristics of Chinese medicine education.

AbstractThis article aims to throw a light on the problems relating to the proposed enlargement of the composition of the UN Security Council at present by studying the creation of four non-permanent seats in the Security Council in 1963 from the British and the French perspectives. The examination is based on the author's research of original documents in the archives of the British and French foreign ministries and upon information provided to the author by British, French and Finnish diplomats. The author concludes that, as between 1946 and 1963, British and French short term interests are still best served by maintaining the status quo in the Security Council. However, in a long term perspective it is not clear where the interests of these two States lie.

Depth Interviews

The proliferation of data journalism has enabled newsrooms to deploy technologies for both mundane and more sophisticated workplace tasks. To bypass long-term investment in developing data skills, out-of-the-box software solutions are commonly used. Newsrooms today are partially dependent on third-party platforms to build interactive and visual stories – but the business models of platforms are predisposed to changes, frequently inducing losses of stories. This article combines in-depth interviews and an ancillary survey to study the status quo and identify future challenges in embracing out-of-the-box and in-house tools, and their impact on Australian data journalism. Results indicate a dichotomy between commercial and public service media organisations. Commercial outlets are heavily reliant on out-of-the-box solutions to develop stories, due to a lack of skillsets and a shortage of skilled labour. By contrast, public service media are developing their own in-house solutions, which reflects their desire for the continuous digital preservation of data stories despite the challenges identified.

AbstractThe rise of China has aroused heated debates on whether the country would become the “revisionist” power in challenging the supreme position of the “status quo” power, the United States. This paper aims to examine whether the rise of China would, firstly, empower Beijing to solve the long-term crisis in the Korean Peninsula, and secondly, complicates the picture in solving the difficult historical and political issues in Sino-Japanese relations. It is argued that the increasing economic and military capabilities of China are not instrumental in fostering significant changes within North Korea and in monitoring the external behavior of its leaders. A more nationalistic China which lacks soft power also hinders a favorable solution to the challenges of Sino-Japanese relations.

IntroductionAdult smoking prevalence in Taiwan rapidly declined from 26.5% in 2005 to 20.0% in 2015. Nevertheless, future projections on smoking-attributable deaths and current per capita consumption do not paint an equally bright picture.MethodsWe used SimSmoke, a tobacco control simulation model to assess the impact of tax increases and other policies by predicting past and projecting over future decades smoking rates and smoking-attributable mortality.ResultsThe model accurately depicts the decline in smoking prevalence observed in Taiwan from 2000 to 2015. Nonetheless, under the ‘status quo’ scenario, smoking-attributable mortality is projected to continue growing, peaking at 26 602 annual deaths in 2039 and cumulative deaths >1 million by 2044. By comparing projections with current policies with a counterfactual scenario based on the 2000 policy levels, SimSmoke estimates that tobacco control in Taiwan has been able to reduce smoking prevalence by 30% in 2015 with 450 000 fewer smoking-attributable deaths by 2060. Modified scenarios show that doubling the retail price of cigarettes and fully implementing the remaining MPOWER measures would avert approximately 45 000 lives by 2040 and 130 000 by 2060.ConclusionsTobacco will be a leading cause of death in Taiwan for the coming decades, showing yet again the long-term consequences of smoking on public health. The MPOWER package, even if adopted at the highest level with a large tax increase, is unlikely to reduce smoking prevalence to the endgame goal of 5% in the next five decades.

Improving teachers’ online class application ability is a critical issue that needs to be addressed in the Sichuan Cloud Education promotion process. The four-stage training model of Sichuan Cloud Education constructs a reproducible and easy-to-promote online class teacher’s application ability model. It provides practical solutions to poor pertinence and limited application in previous training and provides a reference for China to promote the teaching team’s construction in the information environment. This paper started from the status quo and problems of “Sichuan Cloud Education,” then explored its training model and curriculum system, and finally put forward some perspective thoughts on the development of “cloud education.”

Long-term political, economic, and military trends are reshaping the security environment in the Taiwan Strait in potentially destabilizing ways and undermining the ““one China”” framework. The United States has become more deeply involved in cross-strait relations to maintain stability and preserve the status quo, but this approach may not be sustainable.

Abstract Price controls for prescription drugs are once again at the forefront of policy discussions in the United States. Much of the focus has been on the potential short-term savings – in terms of lower spending – although evidence suggests price controls can dampen innovation and adversely affect long-term population health. This paper applies the Health Economics Medical Innovation Simulation, a microsimulation of older Americans, to estimate the long-term impacts of government price setting in Medicare Part D, using pricing in the Federal Veterans Health Administration program as a proxy. We find that VA-style pricing policies would save between $0.1 trillion and $0.3 trillion (US$2015) in lifetime drug spending for people born in 1949–2005. However, such savings come with social costs. After accounting for innovation spillovers, we find that price setting in Part D reduces the number of new drug introductions by as much as 25% relative to the status quo. As a result, life expectancy for the cohort born in 1991–1995 is reduced by almost 2 years relative to the status quo. Overall, we find that price controls would reduce lifetime welfare by $5.7 to $13.3 trillion (US$2015) for the US population born in 1949–2005.

Structural Budget

In November 2016 Pennsylvania’s Independent Fiscal Office released a five-year projection of the health of the Commonwealth’s economy and budget. The long-term estimates were not promising as increasing expenditures outstripped existing sources of revenues. Left unchanged, the status quo would result in a deficit of almost $3 billion in fiscal year 2021–22. Tackling this “structural deficit” is one of the most difficult issues facing the state of Pennsylvania. Given the current political climate it should come as no surprise that there is no consensus on resolving this problem. COMMONWEALTH invited representatives from two very different policy perspectives to provide their solutions to the structural deficit. We would like to thank Bob Dick of the Commonwealth Foundation and Marc Stier of the Pennsylvania Budget and Policy Center for addressing this important issue in the COMMONWEALTH Forum.

The advent of the Islah movement in Malay Peninsula during the early twentieth century challenged the status quo and the existing political and religious institutions. It created a major controversy and tension between the reformists and those supporting the existing order. Consequently, some Muslims were suspicious of the reformists. This was primarily due to their non-adherence to the Shafi’i school of Islamic law, which was adopted by the majority of Muslims not only in Malay Peninsula, but the Nusantara in general. Amid such controversy, some people overlook and even dismiss the contribution of the reformists. Therefore, this article re-examines both the short and long-term contribution of the Islah movement to Malay society.

Objective To understand the status quo, characteristics, research hotspots and evolution of international physical activity during pregnancy. Methods Search all relevant literature between the data records and June 30, 2018 with the “Pregnancy Exercise” and “Physical Activity During Pregnancy” keywords in the Web of Science core database. According to the basic principles of bibliometrics, based on keyword co-occurrence, citation analysis, co-citation analysis and other measurement methods, the knowledge map is drawn by VOS viewer 1.68 software, and the external features and hotspots of international physical activity research during pregnancy are presented through visual maps. Results  (1) The study of physical activity during pregnancy started earlier, 30 years ago, and culminated 20 years ago; the subject areas are broad, including: obstetrics, gynaecology, etiology, epidemiology and nutrition, sports science Behind; the journal "American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology" ranked first, "Obstetrics and Gynecology" second, "Medicine and Science In Sports and Exercise" third; the core authors work closely; Harvard University, North Carolina The University of Adelaide and the University of Adelaide have made outstanding contributions, and universities have become the main force in this field of research. (2) The hotspots of international physical activity research during pregnancy are mainly distributed in six major areas: 1 the impact of physical activity during pregnancy on maternal health and the risk of complications; 2 the relationship between physical activity and pregnancy outcome during pregnancy; 3 the physical activity of pregnant women during pregnancy and fetal development and Long-term health effects of offspring; 4 factors influencing physical activity during pregnancy; 5 recommended criteria for physical activity during pregnancy, appropriate exercise and exercise during pregnancy, safety and precautions during exercise and exercise; 6 scientific measurement of physical activity during pregnancy Evaluation. (3) In the past 30 years, the research on physical activity and health promotion in the international pregnancy has been increasing year by year. The research hotspots have always evolved around the main line of “physical activity”, “pregnancy”, “fetus”, “health” and “safety”. In addition, its research hotspots also show periodic characteristics that change with the year. Before 1999, the focus of attention was on the “status quo”, “pros and cons” and “safety” of physical activity during pregnancy. In 1999-2006, the focus was on "pregnancy outcomes" and "complications." In 2007-2013, the focus was on “chronic illness” and “exercise prescription”. After 2014, “lifestyle”, “scientific measurement and evaluation” and “epigenetic” gradually became hot spots. Conclusions "Physical activity during pregnancy", "sports exercise during pregnancy", "chronic disease", "safety", "pregnancy outcome", "parental fetal health", "measurement and evaluation" will continue to be the main hotspots in the study of physical activity during international pregnancy in the future; The “built environment”, “mental health”, “epigenetic”, “children’s long-term health”, “preferred physical activity recommendation” and “wearable equipment”, “monitoring method” and “regulatory mechanism” embodying health and happiness, people-oriented development strategy "Glucose and lipid metabolism" and so on will also become the focus of research on physical activity during pregnancy in the next period.
